Terms of Use

These terms apply to your use of Chantilly Residents Directory. By using the service, you agree to them; do not use the service if you do not agree.

1. Nature of This Service

Chantilly Residents Directory is a private reference to Fairfax County and Virginia public-record sources, indexes, and historical directory collections. It does not host government records and is not affiliated with a government office, court, library, or custodian.


2. Lawful Use Rules

Use the service only for lawful purposes. You may not use it, or material reached through it, to:

  • Stalk, harass, intimidate, threaten, or harm any person
  • Locate someone protected by a restraining or protective order
  • Commit identity theft or fraud
  • Make FCRA-regulated decisions (credit, employment, tenant, insurance)
  • Scrape, copy, or republish the site's content at scale
  • Interfere with the site's operation or security

3. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

This site is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq.). Nothing here, and nothing any linked search tool returns, is a consumer report, and none of it may be used to judge eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or any other FCRA-covered purpose.


4. External Services

County and state portals, library collections, sponsored tools, and other linked services maintain their own terms and privacy practices. We do not control their content, availability, fees, or data handling.


5. No Guarantee

The service is offered “as is” and “as available,” without warranties. We do not guarantee that content is complete, accurate, or current, or that an external portal will remain available or return a correct result.


6. Liability Limits

To the extent law permits, the operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages connected with this service, linked sources, or decisions based on records reached through them.


7. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the operators of this site from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from your misuse of the site or violation of these terms.


8. Intellectual Property

The original text, design, logo, and layout of this site are protected by copyright. Linking to any page and quoting brief excerpts with attribution is welcome; republishing full pages or systematically copying content is not.


9. Term Revisions

We may revise these terms by posting an updated version here. Continued use after a revision constitutes acceptance.


10. Access Restrictions

We may restrict or block access, without notice, when a user violates these terms or misuses the service.


11. Virginia Law

Virginia law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Fairfax County agency-record requests are subject to the Virginia Freedom of Information Act, Va. Code §2.2-3700 et seq., including §2.2-3704; that law does not override court, voter, vital-record, or confidentiality restrictions.


12. Severability

If one provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect.
